Description
　
Stereo power amplifier of the highest-class specification which valued the delicate representation.

Large power and super-low-distortion-ization are realized until it banished all the interstage capacitors, it has adopted the 3 steps of whole page hardwired-connections Darlington pure complimentary OCL circuit system which adopted three-fold silicon diffusion type PNP and a NPN power transistor and it reaches a super-bass region from the first rank to a final stage.

DC potential has acquired the very high stability by adoption of the two-step differential amplifier.

What combined the electronic circuitry and power relay by nine transistors and 11 diode is adopted as a protection network, and it serves also as the power-source muting.

Two input terminals are carried and 4 position change is possible for Input sensitivity.
Moreover, three speaker outputs are carried.

The low cut-off filter of the sharp property of 12 dB/oct whose switching is possible for 7Hz and 20Hz is carried.

The survey data minutely checked for every set is attached.
